You don't think their popularity might be due to other things? How about
the popularity of Halo 1 & 2 and dozens of other games on XBox Live and
Sony's Socom and EA Sport's online games for the Playstation2? Of course
Nintendo told us we really didn't want online games so made no effort to
give it to us. What about the massive advertising Sony and Microsoft gave
to their consoles compared to Nintendo's efforts? No of course that can't
be a reason since when does the amount of advertising relate to a product's
popularity right? No I guess you're right, the *ONLY* reason is piracy.
